Unexpected Fiancée novel Chapter 99

Chapter 99: Amazing Jane

"Of course not!" Jane pushed Patrick away, a firmness in her voice. "Patrick, I've already made it clear that I'm not Candy, and I refuse to be thought of as her replacement!"

Patrick, frustrated but aware of her strong feelings on the matter, decided not to push further. "Let's go back," he said, his expression giving nothing away.

Meanwhile, in a private room at Allure Bar, Bruce enjoyed some discreet downtime with his friends. Annie, however, had followed him without his knowledge.

"Bruce," she addressed him, walking in without waiting for an invitation.

Bruce, unamused, inquired, "What are you doing here?"

"Why are you avoiding me, Bruce?" Annie questioned, her tone laced with hurt. "You don't answer my calls, and when I go to the hotel to look for you, you're never there."

"We broke up," Bruce responded coldly.

Annie, desperate and unwilling to accept the end of their relationship, leaned closer to him, pleading, "Bruce, are you so heartless? Have you forgotten the happy memories we made? You said you'd love me forever. You can't be that cruel."

Bruce, pushed to his limit, finally snapped, "Annie, this is the last time I'm going to remind you that we broke up!"

Annie, still refusing to accept their separation, continued to press, "But why, Bruce? Why are you being so cruel to me?"

Bruce was clear in his response, "Annie, I don't want to see you again."

Defeated and heartbroken, Annie resorted to one final plea, "Give us another chance. Please... I still love you. We can go back to how things were before..."

Bruce, growing more frustrated by the moment, declared, "Enough! Stop following me!"

Annie reached for his arm, trying to hold on to the remnants of their relationship, but Bruce, his patience entirely spent, broke free and left without looking back. Annie fell to the floor in despair.

In the same bar, Florence and Erica had just entered and noticed the scene unfolding with Annie.

"Isn't that Annie?" Florence remarked.

Erica confirmed it with a nod, "Yes, why is she on the floor?"

"Hopefully she's dying of embarrassment," Florence commented coldly.

Erica, meanwhile, played along and probed, "Florence, do you mean...?"
